Canelo Tests Positive for Traces of Clenbuterol

[TheTeddyBear]

Look at the difference from the Floyd fight to now, he looks 10years older in the face and has a rugged ass beard, kids on roids.

[Dickagon]

He typically trains in America, right? When he was fighting at 155 he probably walked around at 180+. A dude with stamina issues that has hard cuts gets popped for this shit and somehow its a false positive

WBC, WBA Back Canelo in Test Controversy: He is Innoncent!

Quote:It seems that the issue of clenbuterol is a common problem in Mexico, and on some occasions a sister organization like the WBC has had to study this problem more often in the past and I think they will have much more experience in this regard

Quote:...as far as we know about clenbuterol, because of the level found and with the clean record of Canelo, who has been a part of the program of the Voluntary Anti-Doping Agency for four years and had never tested positive, and considering that the problem of clenbuterol is a public health issue - everything indicates that it is a food contamination."

Oh, and from Victor Conte (to Echo someone's earlier point in this thread...

Quote:“Here, we end up with this dog-ate-my-homework type of excuse and everyone thinks (Canelo) was doing drugs. It is plausible that he did not intentionally cheat. Nobody can say for sure if there was intent or not. He could have used Clenbuterol for three months and there are still traces in his body. Or he could have eaten tainted meat.

“But these are multi-million-dollar athletes. I’d be shipping in fresh meat from someone other than Mexico. They had to know this was a possibility.”

I think the fact that they delayed making the rematch and he cycled off before camp is far more plausible than contaminated meat.

[Imperius3]

Only trace amounts, and it's common in the meat in Mexico. He's been tested for a long time, and he's never come up dirty before. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt for now.

If anyone needed a shot of somehing illegal to help with having shittier stamina than an octogenarian desk jockey - it’s Canelo.

C'mon guys lets be real to those who are giving him the benefit of the doubt. The reality is 95% of elite level fighters are cycling on and off stuff at some point in their careers. never testing positive is the biggest joke of an excuse that you could give, as that infamous interview with Memo points out.

The ONLY guys I give any benefit of the doubt to are the ones that do VADA 24/7/365 random testing. The rest are all suspect IMHO.

On a side note I see the British govt had the courage of their convictions to pretty much say that Wiggins cheated. Good on them.

Pro cycling must surely be the prime candidate for dirtiest sport?
